Meta-analysis on the survival of short implants
2010
Objective: To evaluate the success and failure rates of short implants (10 mm or less) for oral rehabilitations in cases of limited bone height. Study Design: Review of the articles published on the topic between the years 2000 and 2010, and development of a descriptive meta-analysis of the results. Results: The majority of the studies obtain a cumulative success rate (CSR) similar to that of longer implants (92.5% - 98.42% for machined and rough-surface implants, respectively). The studies that record lower cumulative success rates (CSR) are later studies that analyze implants with a machined surface. Almost none of the studi-es compared the success/failure rates with the bone quality or l…
Masseter and temporalis muscle electromyography findings after lower third molar extraction.
2018
Background The main clinical application of electromyography is to detect abnormalities in muscle function, to assess muscle activity for purposes of recruitment, and in the biomechanics of movement. Objectives To analyze electromyography (EMG) findings for masticatory muscles during chewing following surgical extraction of lower third molars, and to determine any correlation between pain, inflammation, trismus, and the EMG data registered. Material and Methods This prospective study included 31 patients. Surface EMG was used to study masseter and temporalis muscle function before lower third molar extraction and 72 hours and seven days after surgery. Clinical variables, pain, inflammation,…
Clinical repercussions and epidemiological considerations of supernumerary canines : a 26 case series
2019
Background To establish the prevalence of supernumerary canines (SNC) in a sector of the population of Madrid (Spain), as well possible complications associated with this unusual developmental variation. Material and Methods This observational study was performed between 2005 and 2017, among 21,615 patients seeking dental treatment at the Faculty of Dentistry, Complutense University of Madrid (Spain), and at the Virgen de la Paloma Hospital, Madrid (Spain); 22 patients with 26 SNCs were diagnosed. These 22 patients underwent clinical and radiological exploration, registering patient data. Results SNCs presented a prevalence of 0.10% of the study population. The supernumerary teeth (SNT) wer…
Quantification of growth factors by using a new system for obtaining platelet-rich plasma
2010
Objective: To verify the performance of a new method for obtaining platelet-rich plasma, while avoiding contami- nation of the sample during its processing. Study Design: Twenty healthy patients were selected, from whom 21 ml of blood was etracted. �e then pro- Design: Twenty healthy patients were selected, from whom 21 ml of blood was etracted. �e then pro- esign: Twenty healthy patients were selected, from whom 21 ml of blood was etracted. �e then pro- ceeded to study the platelets and growth factors in basal blood after centrifuging the sample by using a new closed system for obtaining platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Results: After centrifuging the blood sample, double the amount of platelet…
